I would argue that, if anything, we'd need to take a look at both XML aggregation (RSS/Atom) and an email-bridge. For instance we could setup a read-only foresight-user (already exists) or foresight-forum list, which would work like foresight-commits does presently. The important thing is obviously eyeballs; the difficult thing is to get the signal/noise ratio manageable. If the list can only be posted to by the forum software and the list-admin, we effectively eliminate a source of random spamming, cutting down on the noise on that front?
